“Absolutely stellar experience with Darbar! This gem offers Afghani, Indian, and Indo-Chinese cuisines. The butter chicken, chicken 65, chili chicken, and various naan options are outstanding and keep me coming back for more. The user-friendly website makes ordering a breeze, complete with weekly specials like 'spend over $40 and get a dish for free', adding incredible value. Highly recommend for anyone craving quality and flavorful dishes!“
“We literally just finished our meal, staying at the Citizen hotel next door. We ordered a chicken wrap, chicken philly and gyro philly and one word for all three - epic. Absolutely great flavors. Highly recommend King's Halal Mediterranean Food.“
“We were in the area and l noticed Essy's Kabob. Knowing my better half likes Mediterranean type of food I suggested we try it for lunch. When we got there we were greated by a couple of the employees and asked if it was our first time there. We were then explained what the menu items were and told what was most popular. We both decided on the chicken kabob and found a table. A short while later we were brought some warm and tadty pita bread. A short time later our chicken kabob plates should up with basmati rice, hummus, and fresh grilled pepper and tomato. The chicken was very good, tendor with great flavor. The rice, hummus and vegetables were equally as good and tasted very fresh. All in all it was a good choice and good meal. Friendly, helpful staff and reasonably nice dinning area. Looked like they do a fair amount of catering as well. Definitely worth trying.“
“We came here on a whim since we were driving into the area. I'm so glad that we chose this mom&pop location opposed to the other korean restaurants nearby.The parking situation is a bit awkward, it isn't located in the best area but it's fine as long as you find a spot right in front of the building. Upon arriving, there were only two other parties which indicated that they weren't really busy. We sat down with big appetites, so we were ready to try out different dishes. It seemed like there was just a wife and husband behind the counter and kitchen. It was a very friendly atmosphere and it was almost like being at home.Everything that we ordered was absolutely delicious and filled us up. Next time, I would order the gochujang sauce on the side since it made the wings a bit soggy after a few minutes. There were so many sides that it filled up the entire table. I love how there was unique banchan that I never had before which made the meal taste even better. I would definitely recommend this place!“
“Nice ambiance, very hospitable staff and good service, we ordered Chole bhature, aloo tikki, shahi paneer (shredded) and veg biryani the food was fresh and exceptionally tasty, sesame naan was very soft, sweet yogurt drink was perfect, in all a very good Indian/pakistani restaurant, I strongly recommend this restaurant “
“My family tried Samosas, tacos, spicy and non spicy, loaded fries, manchurian love noodles, and last but not least the Mango Lassi. Everything was absolutely delicious!! Ive never tried Mango Lassi. There's is superb! The gentlemen working were very kind and courteous. We will 100% be back. If you want to try Indian food but don't know where to start! Start here!!!“
“The overall description for heat here is kind of interesting. Got the med + because it was hard to tell how hot to choose.They don't even offer the hot hot on dd so got the medium plus.Very quality chicken perfectly cooked and the spice level is enjoyable, but for a real heat seeker I would go for hot next time. Spice blend is nicely balanced with a max of flavor, chicken crispy after delivery.Big money sauce and dirty ranch quite fire and both easy on the pallette.“
“I wanted to try authentic, traditional Palestinian food to show my solidarity with their people's struggle for freedom. I was visiting my sister in Sacramento, and she recommended Basha Taste of Jerusalem. They start you off with complimentary fresh baked flat bread and olive oil which tasted divine! We ordered the "Mansaf" lamb and chicken dish, and the "Maqluba" upside-down chicken and rice dish. It was absolutely phenomenal! The portions are very generous and we had lots of left overs to-go that tasted just as great the next day. I loved the interior décor and the staff were very friendly. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town to try more dishes that are not common at generic "Middle Eastern / Mediterranean" restaurants.“
“Finally got to try this place out after driving by so many times and seeing so many people out there waiting. I got the falafel platter and a side of fries. So flavorful and so good! You also get a lot of food and best part? It tastes even better the next day.“
“Best chicken zinger burger and wrap in Sacramento. The taste and quantity is wholesome! love zingers and couldn’t find any decent restaurant in the US. That’s all I’ve tried and I can testify it’s not at all disappointing.Small review - Chicken is a little over cooked could be juicier. You can further improve it by adding more flavor of sauce like tandoori mayo!May Allah bless your work??“
“I was crunched for time and they were able to get me my food faster than a drive thru at a fast food restaurant. Friendly and accommodating service. I have passed this place several times and have wanted to try, and they did not disappoint. The food is GREAT! I got the spicy chicken gyro with a Greek salad, oh so tasty. If you have not tried them, make sure you do. If I lived closer I'd be in trouble.“
“Amazing foood!!! I tried their Arabian shawarma meal, it was awesomely delicious!The owner is a friendly guy. I would highly recommend them.The only thing I didn’t like was that their bathroom seemed to be closed and they didn’t have forks on counter. Other than that, it’s a great place to check out. I’ll be coming to try their other menu items out.?“
“Wanted a gyro, but couldn't locate it on the menu. That was a good thing, because I asked for a recommendation, and the gentleman recommended a chicken shawarma, and it didn't disappoint! Fresh crisp veggies, lots of flavor and the sauce was excellent!“
“Stopped in for lunch on a Thursday, and sadly the place was completely empty. Given the great reviews, I tried it anyway and am glad I did. I had the "Sunny" Burger, and it was fantastic. Cooked perfectly, moist, and flavorful. Best burger I have had in a while. Friendly staff, fast service. Check this place out and do not be afraid to be the only guest.“
“I went today after a long day at work looking for a halal pizza place and I don’t regret it at all. I was blown away by how good the pizza tasted. Not only that, the place was so clean which is very unexpected for a family business and I was treated with kindness and warm hospitality by the staff, and they were very friendly and attentive. Their pizza always has a lot of toppings and you couldn’t find anything like this at regular fast food restaurants. I’m definitely coming back next time I’m craving pizza!“
“I wish I would have taken pictures of my food but I doubt they would have done this review any justice. I ordered the chicken gyro, chicken Philly and a lamb/steak Philly via phone call and the person (male) taking the order was pleasant and articulate enough to understand him. He repeated the order back to me twice and asked if I wanted to make my food spicy and then made sure he had it down right and gave me an estimated wait time of 15. I got there 20 minutes later and my food was ready and I was immediately welcomed with a smile and a courteous “hi, are you here for pickup? “. I’m so surprised the place was empty and I was a bit scared that maybe it wasn’t a good sign but when I went in the car and opened my food I was pleased at how big my portions were meaning there was plenty of meat and chicken on my gyro so I know I wasn’t being ripped off like in other places where they give you 5 pieces of lamb or steak for the amount you pay . The food is extremely affordable compared to other afghan/ gyro places and the meat given is soooo much more compared to others too. My husband and I took a big bite and we couldn’t stop eating even after being full. The food was so good; the chicken was so juicy and full of flavor and it tasted fresh. I also need to clarify that the “juicy” part of the meals had nothing to do with grease or too much left over oil this place really knows how to make their food so delicious without feeling like you bit into straight up oil. I did not have any stomach issues after eating and it definitely wasn’t salty so I’d recommend this place to people with sodium restrictions. The two gentlemen went above and beyond from the first call all the way til my food was given to me with a smile. Overall I would definitely recommend this place to anyone craving a “middle eastern” food item and for welcoming service. I do have ONE complaint and that is their parking availability, the entrance is tight and there is limited parking so I can see how this would be difficult to visit during rush hour times. Do try this place out!Dietary restrictions: Low sodium, customizable options“
“I am delighted to share my wonderful experience of dining at this restaurant. The taste of the food was absolutely delicious and left me craving for more. Credit goes to Mr. Arif who has done an excellent job in maintaining high standards of professionalism and providing top-notch service to customers. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for an unforgettable dining experience. The customer service was exceptional and deserves more than just five stars!“
“Most amazing Gyro i've ever had... Tender tasty meat lots of produce amazing garlic yogurt sauce with a fresh pita. Much much bigger than any yro i've had and much better, too. I got the combo with the salad and drink. It came out to $16 which is about the same price as a big Mac meal. But much healthier and tastier. The salad was phenomenal, and there were lots of fresh produce cucumbers. Tomatoes, onion's lettuce with great sauce and big portions.“
“The food is just great and their proportions are good!I’ve been coming back here for food & I usually go with their chicken & lamb over salad with yogurt. A great combo, must try, must have!The lamb is prepped good, no smell and the chicken is tender! I go with the spicy sauce, but they also offer mild. Spicy tbh isn’t too spicy, very bearable.They also have milk shakes & offer smoothies!I eat out only here when in the area. Subway & the other restaurants don’t compare. Thank you for your service!??“
“dined at this establishment and found the buns exceptionally soft and delectable. While the chicken quesadillas didn't quite suit our tastes, they weren't unpleasant and might appeal to others. The buffalo fries were enjoyable. It would have been convenient to have a kid's menu available. The milkshakes were generously sized, although too large for the kids to finish. The service was outstanding, and I hope this place gains popularity. In terms of pricing, if you're a fan of Monsoon Burger, you'll likely enjoy this place too. Although my husband and granddaughter prefer Monsoon, I personally preferred this establishment because the burgers were exceptionally tasty, and the portion size was just right. Windows are big location can pick up in the future.“
“The service was great and the guy helping me order was super nice and helpful when I picked my order. I got the mixed fries with lamb and chicken. The chicken is slightly spicy because it's marinated in some red spicy sauce. The lamb and chicken were both super moist and really nice. The sauces on top were super good and even though the sauce was all over, the fries weren't soggy and still crisp. I eat a lot and I barely finished the fries. You could easily feed two with one fry order. (I took the picture after I had already taken some bites, it looked a lot prettier than this)“
“Good customer service, great chicken, yummy fries all for $10.99!!! You even get a roll and yummy ranch. I will be back to try more items!!! Had Grubhub deliver a kid's burger and Kid's fish and chips today and it was good as well!!! I wish I would have gotten more chicken. I will soon!!!!“
“The succulent pieces of tender goat meat, cooked to perfection, are generously coated in a rich and aromatic blend of spices, including ginger, garlic, and an array of traditional Pakistani spices. Each bite bursts with a harmonious balance of heat and depth, leaving a lasting impression that keeps you coming back for more.“
“My wife and I love this restaurant. Food is always good. The only issue is paying for online orders. It never seems to want to go though. Besides that my wife and I will keep coming here.Kid-friendliness: My wife is a part-time vegetarian. She would kill me for saying that they definitely have some vegetarian options that are delicious“
“I like their simple straight forward Menu with certain levels of Spice. I found medium is the best option for an average Spice lover and mild if you can't cope with spicy food. Try to eat is ASAP, the hotter the better taste-wise. Staff is friendly and like their ranch sauce and ask for honey sachets for a unique taste. They're a bit expensive but worth the money value. Only thing which is annoying is a long line, no drive thru and no phone orders to save time.“
“The dining room wasn't much to look forward to it needs a remodel to become more welcoming. Pizza wise was ok every slice we pull the majority of the toppings falls off. The pizzas could use more cheese and the toppings were light for the price. The service was very nice and that's the reason why I gave this place a 4 instead of a 3. Overall it was ok“
“Amazing hospitality and customer service. Fast service, fair prices, and delicious food. If you're a regular, they will start making your food while in line.I would get a Spicy Chicken Platter at least once a week. Worth my wallet. It's nutritious and filling.“

“I love curry chicken I've been to many jamaican restaurants and the curry chicken is soo bomb. I love the flavor the spice it's so good and the portions are a great amount. I've came here 3 times so far and will be back for more.“
“This is my favorite Thai restaurant. They have a delicious yellow curry that is my go to in the winter. The chicken satay is soo good with the peanut sauce. The pad thai is delicious as well. The last time I went I got the mango dango and it was really good it had a sweet sauce with chili flakes and pieces of fresh mango. The thai tea is also great from here. If you like dessert I highly recommend the mango sticky rice and the fried bananas. Anything you get here will not disappoint ?“
“I’m staying at a hotel nearby and decided to try this place. I got a falafel wrap and it was so DELICIOUS! The first bite I took had so many flavors. It is a good value for how much food you get. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but I would definitely recommend trying this place. I’ll be back here at least one more time before I leave.“
“We really enjoyed our meal here. Our car was being worked on up the street so we stopped in for a late lunch. We both ordered the chicken shawarma. Be patient. The food is worth a little wait. When our food was ready we were very pleasantly surprised. The shawarma each came with a sauce to dip them in. We were also offered hot sauce. They were delicious, but beware they are very hot (temperature). The halal chicken was very flavorful. I can't remember the name of the very friendly woman who worked there, but you could tell she worked hard to be sure we enjoyed our meal.“
“First time trying Dave’s. We had Abby take our order and she was great!Kid-friendliness: Great place for families to eat out. Music playing is also very pg-13.Wheelchair accessibility: Alot of tables available for wheelchair accessibility.“
